I have only read Nicks book. So I dont have experience with either. What is the general consensus here on the board.
Which is better/easier, Internal strongback or External?
I figured the internal was better just because you are certain that the deck joins the hull because you stripped it that way.
What are your preferences? and why?
Thanx
: I prefer the external myself, but see no reason why you could not adapt an
: internal to the SR. You would just need to figure out the placement of the
: SB in each form.
: There seems to be a consensus that the SR will track stronger than the G.
: boat. This can be good or bad depending on your point of view. Some people
: have added external skegs to their G's while others like the loose
: handling. You should really try each before building.
: The seats are made of minicell foam and should be very light. They are
: comfortable :-) BTW: Joe will make a seat for either boat. You just need
: to send him some dimensions from the finished kayak.
: You should really contact both Joe and Nick. I'm sure they would be more than
: happy to talk with you.
